TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida State’s DJ Stewart completed the trifecta Monday afternoon adding Baseball America Freshmen All-American to his list of postseason accolades as the Seminole outfielder earned a spot as a first team honoree in 2013.

Stewart closed out his first year at Florida State as the team leader in average (.364), hits (82), doubles (25), slugging percentage (.560), on-base percentage (.469) and stolen bases (8), while ranking third with five home runs. He also finished the season ranked in the top 10 in the ACC in six offensive categories including doubles (3rd), batting average (4th), on-base percentage (5th), RBI (7th), slugging percentage (8th) and hits (9th).
